In each issue of The Preschool Press and on our website, we will be featuring one of the Florida PTA Top Position Statements.

It is important for us as parents to review these issues and support the Florida PTA's position on them.  This is the tool that we have to make a difference in our children's futures.

For a comprehensive list of all the Florida PTA position statements go to www.FloridaPTA.org and click on the Legislation tab.  There you will be able to read the Position Statements.
